OBJECTIVE: To analyze whole exome sequencing (WES) data on ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) in Korean patients via the technique of next generation sequencing (NGS). Genomic profiles were compared between endometriosis-associated OCCC (E…
Endometriosis is a major cause of disability in women, and 40% to 50% of patients experience disease recurrence by 5 years after surgery. This multicenter retrospective cohort study (N = 588) determined the rate and risk factors for recurre…
PURPOSE: We compared the predictive and prognostic values of leukocyte differential counts, systemic inflammatory (SIR) markers and cancer antigen 125 (CA-125) levels, and identified the most useful marker in patients with ovarian clear cel…
BackgroundWhether endometriosis affects the prognosis of ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) remains controversial despite the relationship between OCCC and endometriosis. A two-center cohort study and meta-analysis were performed to invest…
Progesterone receptor (PR) exists in two isoforms, PRA and PRB, and both contain activation functions AF-1 and AF-2. It is believed that AF-1 is primarily responsible for the ligand-independent activity, whereas AF-2 mediates ligand-depende…
BACKGROUND: The risk and prognosis of ovarian cancer have not been well established in women with endometriosis. Thus, we investigated the impact of endometriosis on the risk and prognosis for ovarian cancer, and evaluated clinicopathologic…
PurposeBorderline ovarian tumors (BOTs) are more common in young women of reproductive age, and exhibit a better prognosis than malignant ovarian tumors (MOTs). Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/…
Ovarian cancer presents at an advanced stage in more than 75% of patients. Early detection has great promise to improve clinical outcomes. Although the advancing proteomic technologies led to the discovery of numerous ovarian cancer biomark…
There have been several epidemiologic studies supporting the protective role of pregnancy, although the mechanism is not clear. High level of progesterone, which is crucial in maintaining pregnancy, has been supposed to be one of the causat…
BACKGROUND: Uterine sarcomas are rare among all uterine malignancies, and frequently misdiagnosed as benign uterine diseases such as leiomyoma and adenomyosis because of lack of feasible tools for the preoperative diagnosis. Although some s…
BackgroundLaparoscopy-assisted vaginal hysterectomy is one of the definite methods for the treatment of symptomatic uterine fibroids with lesser intraoperative bleeding and shorter hospitalization compared with abdominal hysterectomy. Howev…
BackgroundDiagnostic laparoscopy is a useful tool, especially when there is no definite anatomical abnormality visible on imaging modalities. We assess the role and clinical impact of diagnostic laparoscopy in the management of women with c…
